Forms of Communication: is the giving and receiving of information in different ways also communication is the way to help people feel safe and develop of self esteem. There are different types of communication and I would be talking about most communications we have nowadays.
Firstly we have one to one communication, this is where only two people have a conversation can be verbal and non verbal,one on communication could be use between a care worker and a service user discussing about something confidential and important, one on one communication should be taken place in a very comfortable environment and should both feel relaxed. For instance a care worker that about to talk to a service user and has a angry face on service user could be scared and not feel comfortable. Secondly we have texting communication this is mostly used nowadays and used for deaf people as well because obviously deaf people can’t read out so this form of communication would be useful as it would support them to understand what the conversation is about. Then we have signs and symbols communication this is mostly use for deaf people and children with learning disability it helps the client to feel involved for example if care workers is trying to pass massage to a deaf client they might need to use sign and symbols communication to make the client understand but if the care worker doesn’t use the right form communication client could feel intimidated. Next we have written communication this form of communication is similar to texting and used very often to send messages across faster for people that learn and act quickly seeing something written down. Also we have music and drama communication this helps to regain, remember and think quick about something that has happened in the past for example a service user that has been ill or in coma listening to a certain music could make them start to think and remember certain n things this is basically sending message to the brain and helping the service user to recover. Another form of communication is phone calls this form of communication is used the most because its quicker and very easy to get pass massages also it feels like a face to face communication but different because you are talking through a phone for example if a service user needs the nurse attention urgently the care worker can just make a quick phone call to the nurse instead of writing a letter which might take longer.
